Windows 10: Where has the pictures in my Photo Album gone?

Hello, fellow users,After the latest of a slew of Microsoft updates had downloaded and was installed into my computer, I restarted it and waited for the process to conclude and take me back to my work. My machine is long in the tooth; it sometimes takes the processor a couple of hours to download and install a Microsoft Update. It's a pain in the you-know-what to put up with this tedious process but the end of Windows 10 looms near; Microsoft seems anxious to be done with all this before pulling its support.When the Dell screen came back, I realized to my utter dismay that half of my desktop

PICTURES ALBUM

Hi David,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

1) Where have you saved the photo album in PC? Have you saved in local drive?

2) Did you check in Recycle bin?

As a workaround, Try to create a new folder and create a photo album and then save it on desktop or pictures folder in this PC.

If the issue persists, then try to create a new local account and check the issue in that account.

I suggest you to create a new user account and check if it fixes the issue. Refer to the steps below to create a new User Account:

• Go to Settings.
• Choose Accounts and then select Other User Accounts towards the left.
• Select Add an Account.
• Enter a user name and hit Next.
• Click on Finish.
• Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
• Check if issue persists.

Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

Thanks.

 

photo albums

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

1. Could you please briefly explain the procedure that you have followed to setup an album using Windows 10?
   
2. Which application are you using to display the album?
   
3. Which version of Windows is running on your device?
   

Refer the article Which Windows operating system am I running
to provide the details.



If you’re referring to Photos app, I suggest you to refer the section “Help the app find more photos” from the article
See all your photos
for the steps.





Hope it helps.

OneDrive Photo Albums are missing in Camera Roll

Out of nowhere, the photo albums on OneDrive are gone from the Camera Roll (is it still called that?).

I have a Nokia 822 on Verizon, and am running WP8.1 DP w/Black. Just about a week ago, I clicked on the Photos Live Tile, and slid to the left to select Albums. I have the following Albums listed:

Camera Roll

Facebook Beta

OneDrive

I am able to successfully view pictures in the Camera Roll and Facebook Beta albums. However, when choosing OneDrive, I see the following folders:

Camera Roll

OneDrive Albums

Recent Pictures

Saved Pictures

Shared with Me

Camera Roll on OneDrive.com shows a few dozen pictures in the album (as does the OneDrive app for WP8.1), but it is showing nothing on the phone. Recent Photos brings up a hundred or so pictures and videos (BTW- can this information be cleared?). When I
click on OneDrive Albums, the only pictures I see are a couple that are in the OneDrive root directory. No other albums are listed not do I see any way to look for them.

Again, I want to note that the OneDrive app on the phone AND the OneDrive.com website in IE11 on the desktop, EACH work correctly, displaying all photos and albums. I am talking about not being able to view OneDrive albums from the Photos app on the phone.
